If you have had a procedure previously, such as a colonoscopy and/or EGD, with biopsy or polyps, x-rays, CT scan, ultrasound tests or recent lab work, please bring a copy of these reports to your appointment so the doctor can review them.

Procedures

Jackson County Gastroenterology currently does not collect any money up front for co-pays or deductibles for any procedures performed by the physicians at the hospital or ambulatory surgery center.

However, money may be due on the day of your procedure.

The hospital or ambulatory surgery center may require payment on the day of the procedure for any co-pay or deductible. Someone from their insurance verification department may call you to discuss any amounts due on the day of your procedure. You can also verify that information directly with your insurance carrier. You may call them directly to discuss your amount due or any available payment options or payment plans.

If you cancel or reschedule a procedure more than twice, you will need an office visit before the procedure will be rescheduled. No-shows require an office visit before you reschedule. If you are unable to keep your appointment, please call 24 hours in advance to cancel or reschedule, or you will be subject to a $50 fee.
